Gardner's spiny-rat (Proechimys gardneri) is a spiny rat species[2] found in Bolivia and Brazil.

Phylogeny[edit]

Morphological characters and mitochondrial cytochrome b DNA sequences showed that P. gardneri belongs to the so-called gardneri group of Proechimys species. Within this clade, Proechimys gardneri is more closely related to P. pattoni than to P. kulinae.[3][2][4][5]
